Ballerina (Let Me Take You Home)

There goes a ballerina, everybody knows her story

But every night, you can see her put it all behind her, oh-oh

Watch her spin, under the pale moonlight

Will you ever dance for me again, maybe tonight?

Oh, ballerina, ballerina

Let me take you home

It's a long night and a longer day

Ballerina, ballerina

I don't wanna be alone, no

Oh, ballerina, oh-oh-oh

I was a ballerina, everybody knew our story

We were objects of desire, always trying to go higher, ooh-ooh-ooh

Now I sit here, quiet and still

I wish I could take you, even against your will

Oh, ballerina, ballerina

Let me take you home

It's a long night and a longer day

Ballerina, ballerina

Don't want to be alone

We used to lovers, not so long ago

You would dance for me, and I would dance for you

All those golden days, they go so fast

And we are dreamers, fooling while they last

If we could be there again, there's nothing I wouldn't do, no

Nothing I wouldn't do

Oh, ballerina, ballerina

Let me take you home

It's a long night and a longer day

Ballerina, ballerina

I don't wanna be alone

I don't wanna, I don't wanna

Ballerina, ballerina

I don't wanna be alone
